Regression testing minimization, selection and prioritization: a survey
Regression testing is a testing activity that is performed to provide confidence that changes
do not harm the existing behaviour of the software. Test suites tend to grow in size as …

Fault localization with nearest neighbor queries
M Renieres, SP Reiss - 18th IEEE International Conference on …, 2003 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We present a method for performing fault localization using similar program spectra. Our
method assumes the existence of a faulty run and a larger number of correct runs. It then …
